Please, Matthew. Many congratulations on winning the DP World Tour Championship 2025. Your third win in this championship, your first win in two years, your second Rolex Series event. Just tell us just how good this feels, what it means to you. It means the world. Yeah, it means the world. I mean, you know, struggled at the start this year obviously and um you know, to turn it around in the summer like I did and have a rider cup like I did, it’s you know, Ryder Cup in particular, I feel like it’s hard to top. um given everything, but you know, the way that I played today, I you know, I feel like I really hit like one one bad shot all day. So, you know, I’m just so so proud of myself. You know, the effort that everyone puts in behind the scenes, you know, my team and stuff. It’s um yeah, what a feeling. What a feeling. Eight pars in a row in the middle of the round, three behind with six to play. How did you turn it around? How did you shoot three under over those last few holes and then make that difficult up and down at the last to walk away as champ? Yeah, I know. I mean, I I’d not been hitting it amazing uh all week. I kind of really hit it well yesterday and and I would say I hit it really well today and um you know, Dan was insistent on being patient all day and just letting the pots come and you know, like you say, the middle of round there, nothing really was going my way and then uh you know, managed to roll a couple in late and and get yourself in position. Your thoughts when Rory was coming up the 18th, you’ve got to believe he’s going to hold this, but in your mind, were you really thinking that? Of course you do. Yeah, it’s uh he’s probably one of the only few um that you know that you’re going to a playoff. You know, you’re too clear want to play and you know you’re going to a playoff. So, um you know, in typical Rory fashion, you know, he did it again and obviously you know, you never like to see it to the way it ends, but um obviously delighted. From the middle of 2024 to the middle of 2025, you didn’t have a top 10 for 11 months. Is this a win for Perseverance? Is this a win for Mark Blackburn’s work with you? Uh yeah, it’s a you know it’s it’s a it’s a win for everyone. It really is. It’s you know Dan Dan’s gone above and beyond in the effort that he’s put in in this team. You know my performance director Lou Mackey has done awesome. Phil Kenyan’s amazing. um you know, strength coach Andrew, every everyone in the team is really I feel like has come come together and um you know, I couldn’t be couldn’t be happier and and obviously in that down period, you know, I had the support of of my my wife and my friends and family and it to to turn it around and and be here now is very special. Many many congratulations DP World Tour champion 2025. Thanks, Tim. Thank you. To watch another DP World Tour video, click here. And to subscribe, click here.
